(June 1) – Greenberg Traurig recently announced the addition of two shareholders and seven associates across its three Texas offices. The moves have been made over the course of the past few months.
The nine lawyers join with a variety of expertise in real estate, labor and employment, intellectual property, litigation and health care.
Real estate shareholder and associate John Tucker and Hampton Crow, formerly of Cassin & Cassin, are the most recent to join. Tucker said he is impressed by Greenberg Traurig’s broad real estate and finance practices and platforms.
“I’m looking forward of taking advantage of those and expanding my client base,” said Tucker, who primarily represents CMBS lenders in commercial real estate finance transactions.
Tucker, who is joining the firm’s Dallas office, says he is seeing a rise of mezzanine lending in his practice.
Shira Yoshor, who was previously at Baker Botts, is the other shareholder pick up this year. She is a Houston-based lawyer focused on labor and employment matters.
Also joining the Houston office are associates David Walker and Theresa Wanat. They focus on intellectual property litigation and commercial litigation matters, respectively.
Janis Clements and Alan Hersh joined Greeberg Traurig’s Austin office as associates earlier this year. They both focus on commercial litigation.
Healthcare associate Banee Pachuca and real estate associate Amy Simcox also made the move to the firm’s Dallas office.
